Abstract

ABSTRAK

 

Bahasa Remun sering menarik minat pengkaji untuk meneliti aspek bahasanya kerana ciri linguistiknya yang agak berbeza daripada dialek-dialek Iban lain di Sarawak.  Malah, ada pengkaji beranggapan varian Iban Remun ini berstatus “bahasa tersendiri” dan tidak menganggapnya sebagai dialek bahasa Iban. Justeru, kajian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan tahap hubungan kekerabatan di antara bahasa Remun dengan varian Iban lain di Sarawak khususnya bahasa Iban Undop. Selain kaedah leksikostatistik iaitu perbandingan kosa kata asas bagi menentukan peratusan kognat di antara kedua-dua varian ini, kajian ini juga membuat perbandingan kosa kata tambahan dan ciri fonologi.  Hasil kajian mendapati tahap peratusan kata berkognat di antara varian-varian ini ialah 94.7%. Ini bermakna bahasa Iban Remun dan Iban Undop mempunyai hubungan dialektal. Data kajian turut menunjukkan banyak persamaan dari segi inventori fonem dan lingkungan kehadiran fonem dalam kata.  Berdasarkan perbandingan kosa kata tambahan pula, didapati banyak perbezaan di antara varian-varian ini yang boleh menjejaskan kesalingfahaman di antara penutur mereka. Kajian ini juga menyarankan perlu dijalankan kajian susulan yang menyelusuri sejarah penyebaran dialek bahasa Iban di Sarawak serta perbandingan lebih terperinci bahasa Remun dengan varian Ibanik di Kalimantan.

Kata kunci: Borneo, Ibanik, kekerabatan bahasa, leksikostatistik, Remun
